Any advice on Slalom interviews? For the SF office

I thought it was fairly straightforward and painless - I had a written case they gave me a couple of days in advance so I put a quick deck together. That seemed to “wow” them but I didn’t think it was a huge deal. Then we spent about two hours discussing the case. They are huge on feedback, so I lost a few points on not asking for feedback or discussing how feedback is treated internally. I’d recommend you ask about that during your interview, something like:”how is the feedback loop structured here” and that will open the door for them to actually give/ receive feedback. It felt strange to me bringing that up during the actual interview but I understand why they stress that. I have a soft offer from them for January but have to go back for 1-2 more conversations...and ask for feedback! :)

Know your resume in and out and be able to talk about the technology space you are working in. Hardest part of the interview was the case. But the interviewer was very supportive. Case is closely aligned to the role you are applying to.

Is there a sample of the case I can find

I have an offer accepted from Elevance 125k (Anthem) and w a good team and seems that WLB would be ok. Also, Amazon hiring manager wants to interview me for a job. Is just a hiring manager int. so obvi nothing guaranteed. Salary if offered will be more than 150k. My question is should I accept the interview and see where it goes? Is it really worth it to proceed with a company like Amazon for 25k+. I live in CA so $ is imp but I do have a toddler so WLB is also imp. Both role are Sr. MGR.

In a meeting we a client, we were looking at a stock image of a smiling Black man holding a baseball bat while wearing a hoodie. The client comments that it’s the wrong way to hold a bat. Cool. But, then follows up and says, “Also, he just looks aggressive. Like, this person would definitely attack me and my family.” I was shocked. But, apparently, I was the only one. Because everyone else on the call laughed. They were all white except for my partner who is Mexican. But, he still chuckled.
